Know those days (weeks, months) when too many people you meet are impatient, short-tempered and irritating? When someone you work with is rude, condescending or possibly even unethical? When the person you've been dating reveals their true character? When the thought of interacting with one more person causes you to clutch fistfuls of hair and whimper? When you want to answer every ringing phone by shouting "WHAT?!" When you're pretty sure you'll hurl a loaded stapler at the next person who walks through the door? Me too.

Now we can turn off the phone, light this candle and heave a big sigh of relief, because our kiss my ass candles create a magical force field impenetrable by anyone but the kindest of souls.
